Abstract:
An impulse noise mitigation circuit (INMC) may set a cut-off frequency of each of two high pass filters to bound a frequency bandwidth of a desired signal, wherein a first of the two filters allows frequencies higher than the frequency bandwidth of the desired signal, and a second of the two filters allows frequencies lower than the frequency bandwidth of the desired signal. The INMC may compute and store a mean magnitude separately for a first signal response of the first filter and a second signal response of the second filter. The INMC may select the first filter for impulse noise mitigation when the mean magnitude of the second filter is greater than the mean magnitude of the first filter. The INMC may select the second filter for impulse noise mitigation when the mean magnitude of the first filter is greater than the second filter.

Abstract:
A method for cancellation of amplitude modulation noise using feedforward or feedback topologies. The method is adaptable to cancel amplitude modulation noise (contamination) of an input signal, including: receiving an input signal including an amplitude modulation noise signal; demodulating the amplitude modulation noise signal to generate a baseband amplitude modulation noise signal; signal processing the baseband amplitude modulation noise signal to generate a amplitude re-modulation signal; and re-modulating the input signal based on the amplitude re-modulation signal to generate an output signal, the output signal having less amplitude modulation noise than the input signal. In a feedforward embodiment, the methodology includes: signal processing the baseband amplitude modulation noise signal based on signal inversion to generate the amplitude re-modulation signal; and feeding forward the amplitude re-modulation signal to re-modulate the amplitude re-modulation signal with the input signal. In a feedback embodiment, the methodology includes: receiving the input signal in a gain controlled amplifier, generating a gain-controlled output signal; detecting the amplitude of the amplitude noise modulation signal in the gain-controlled output signal to generate a feedback amplitude noise signal; integrating the feedback amplitude noise signal to generate a gain control signal; and adjusting the gain controlled amplifier based on the gain control signal, such that the gain-controlled output signal has less amplitude modulation noise than the input signal.
